I just loaded them in Youtube so it might take a lil time for them to be viewable, not sure if that is the glitch your mentioning...
I know you want a copy of the vid, is there a way you can receive it, I'll try your email...

Hey D-Slide I think you need some better front wheels on that chair. I think I noticed a little wobble in the left one. Then you would easily hit 10.2 I think

the spine is fine, they will be taking the two steel rods and four nasty looking screws out on April 30 so i have that to look forward to :thumbdown:other than that it is all good ,i can walk with a brace on my right leg for nearly a block but it takes a ton of effort but I'm getting stronger everyday .kiting on the other hand is becoming weekly again and with the purchase on a rear rack for my SUV i can now get to and from our local riding spot and that is a huge bonus:wee: so good to get back in the buggy and ride what a great life i have

yes the front casters are a bit shaky at any real speed ,so i am in the process of mounting my dirtsurfer under the footplate of the wheelchair and riding on the deck using both wheelchair wheels and the 20 inch wheels of the dirtsurfer .I will send pictures of this franken chair as it develops and see what you think.i better get a seat belt for my chair LOL.and i need all the practice i can get because i over heard Rip saying he is going to shatter my record at NABX 2011 ,like he needs another record haha anyway the line has been drawn in the sand and we will see who has the chair skills :smug: .Flash it was great to meet you and i will see you next year and i like to tell all my friends that think it takes big balls ,that it is not what you achieve in life but what you can over come with the time you have to live.

Hey Slide that last statement is so true. 13 years ago I was in a hospital on support with TBI. loss of left side control no feeling in my hands and feet. 13 months in and out of hospitals with little encouragement from Drs. But my family pushed me to the edge of sanity to keep me going. after a stroke and several other setbacks while in rehab (9 months in and almost another year outpatiant) I worked hard and pushed. Now I read write poorly (thank you spell check) My Mom bought me a kite to work on my motor skills and keep me moving and now I fly power kites and I'm learning to buggy :wee:. I even work part time which I was told would not happen either.
I am totaly impressed by you. And look forward to meeting you some time.

i would be honored to kite buggy with you some day Rockfighter .maybe a NABX event is a place to meet ,keep in touch ,stay strong ,and may the wind be perfect for you every day you have a kite in your hands. P.S I rode hard for nearly four hours today,I'm beat up and sore but i wouldn't want it any other way and I'm leaving the buggy on the back of my SUV so it will be ready for tomorrow even if it hurts to get out of bed tomorrow if the wind is right you know where i will be:D
